Corn Flour Halwa

Items Required

1/2 cup Corn Flour
1 cup Granulated Sugar
A pinch Saffron(optional if using the artificial color)
6 to 7 pods Elachi (Take out the seeds and grind to a coarse powder)
A pinch Orange Red Color (Optional )
A handful Pistachio nuts chopped (Any kind of chopped nuts is fine)
3 tbsp Ghee
4 cups Water

Prepartion Method

Take Corn Flour in a Microwave safe bowl. Preferably a little big. I used the corning ware big size.

Pour 2 Cups of Water. Whisk well until there are no lumps.

Mix in the sugar and whisk until even distribution.

Add the Saffron.

Microwave on High for 2 minutes. Stir and again Microwave on High for 2 minutes. Repeat this until the conflour’s raw smell goes. If you think the content is thickening too quickly, add little water and stir until even distribution and again.

Microwave for 1 or 2 minutes, or until the content becomes a little semisolid and the Corn Flour raw smell disappears completely.

Grease a dish with Ghee and add the remaining Ghee, Ground Elachi and the chopped nuts to the content and stir until even distribution.

Cook again for a minute or two in microwave.

The consistency will resemble a jelly, somewhat semi solid, trying to set.

Immediately pour the content in the greased dish
